Calgary Flames MEGA THREAD 2015-2016 Edition

I just don't get it. Seriously. Everyone knows he sucks, surely the coaching staff must know it too? Why the hell do they keep giving him chance after chance? Enough is enough!

If we played backstrom for 4 games and he was an absolute abortion, I could live with that. We're trying him out. Hiller has been tried and disproven time after time, yet he's still between the pipes.

I just don't get it.

Hiller is our blessed tank commander. I feel bad for him though. Not like he wants to suck, he just can't sting together a strong series of saves to save his life.

He still has it in him too, as we saw a brief glimpse of that when he came in cold against SJ.

Don't confuse luck with skill

I'm not sure why everyone's complaining. Hiller is a blessing to this team lol.

Bring on the losses! Last night was huge against Buffalo - one step closer to Matthews or at least one of the Finns.

As long as we put on a show and still lose, I'm a happy fan haha.

I hate cheering for losses, but at this point, Hartley should be trying different line combos and defense pairings to see if he can find a bit of chemistry. Hoping we get use the 'lower body injury' excuse to call up some guys from the farm.

[JohnnyHockey]

I'm pretty sure they know exactly what they're doing by putting Hiller in net lol....

[Maxx Mazda]

It's pretty tough to have any sort of defence when our top two are so burnt out from all these extra minutes...

Ditto, this is the first time I have been cheering for losses. Even in the losses they have been entertaining games. The worst thing the Flames could do right now is string together some wins and finish 9-11 in the west. Im hoping for a top 3 pick here Flames, don't screw it up!

I will be pissed if Edmonton wins the lottery again. Might as well just give them the cup.

What are the chances for the Flames to win the lottery? 20%?

And they wouldn't have to play all those extra minutes if they could trust the goaltending.

I just don't want the oilers to get another first overall. I don't care who gets it, but it definitely can't be them.

I'd be livid as a an owner seeing the oilers get another one lol. Time to add an oiler clause in the next agreement

Damn, McDavid is a game changer!!!

[Maxx Mazda]

Holy shit we won a game!!

[D'z Nutz]

Man, Hathaway's been awesome since he's been called up.

[BandW]

LOL Bouma wtf was that

[D'z Nutz]

That was a lame ending after a pretty frustrating game.

[Maxx Mazda]

It wasn't for lack of trying at least... Jesus what a frustrating game. Not from the perspective of Calgary, I think we played an awesome game. Just that damn Jones was impossible to solve.
